Washington vs. Eagles live stream: How to watch 'Monday Night Football' online
Washington and Philadelphia will battle under the bright lights on Monday night.
The Philadelphia Eagles are currently in the midst of a four-game winning streak, and they sit atop the NFC East. Washington and Philadelphia met in Week 1, and the Eagles won 30-17. Washington has the opportunity to tighten the division standings when it faces the Eagles on Monday Night Football at 8:30 p.m. ET. ESPN (livestream).
Washington has been competitive this season. This offense ranks in the top 10 in rushing and passing — and Washington currently has the fifth-best defense in the NFL. If Washington wants to win this game, it must neutralize Philadelphia's potent rushing attack. Offensively, Washington has to score early and often. The Eagles can light up a scoreboard with ease, so Washington has to score touchdowns — not field goals.
Philadelphia's offense, led by sophomore quarterback Carson Wentz, has the ninth-best passing offense and the fourth-best rushing offense in the NFL. The Eagles are still undefeated in the City of Brotherly Love, and they are undefeated in division play. Philadelphia's defense, however, ranks 23rd in the league, but that unit only surrenders 20.3 points per game. Even though the Eagles defense isn't one of the more stout units in the league, it makes plays when necessary.
